Housed in a beautiful seventeenth century building which was adapted into a bar and restaurant during the eighteenth century, The Doric proudly proclaims itself the oldest gastro-pub in Edinburgh. The interior is simply decorated with warm wooden floors and tables, plain white walls and rich red curtains. The menu combines great gastro pub favorites with Scottish classics. Although there is a rather retro feel in places (such as the appearance of duck a l'orange), all of the dishes are prepared with some flair while remaining true to their home style origins. Every Sunday they add a traditional home cooked Border beef with all of the trimmings to their already extensive menu.
